Headspace

So often I am at a loss for words

I crave writing to clear my head, but I have been in this same headspace for so long that I have no new words or feelings

I feel like I’ve worn them out

I have sleepless nights, distracted conversations, spaced out thoughts

I want to escape, but I don’t know how

The only way I know to escape is to move away- from all the memories and familiarity

I can’t escape though

I’m here- with myself as the backbone

Anything I do is for myself

I have to be the reason I work to be better

I know I can do it, hell I’ve had my back this long

This headspace is wearing-I’m exhausted

I want to escape
